Yamaha's CS-500 Achieves Microsoft Teams Certification

Yamaha announced it attained Microsoft Teams certification for its CS-500 Video Collaboration System. This certification adds to its already established array of Certified Video Sound Collaboration Systems. The CS-500 integrates audio and visual components into one device - revolutionizing remote communication.

As organizations worldwide continue to embrace remote work, they need a seamless and efficient way to connect, collaborate, and conduct business from anywhere.

CS-500 eliminates the need for separate devices and streamlines the conferencing experience. With its advanced 4K AI-enabled video camera, users get three distinct modes: speaker tracking, individual tracking, and group mode swo the camera focuses on relevant participants and intelligently utilizes audio and video cues to direct the camera's attention accordingly.

Albert Kooiman, Senior Director, Microsoft Teams Partner Engineering and Certification at Microsoft Corp. added, "In a Teams workspace, we are always striving for the most conducive collaboration experience. Being Certified for Microsoft Teams means the CS-500 provides the optimal collaboration and conferencing potential for Microsoft Teams meetings in the meeting room.”

The company’s new SoundCap Eye technology also uses information from a multi-dimensional beamforming microphone array and uses precise positional information from the video feed to hone in on meeting participants and deliver a refined audio experience.

Thomas Hemery, Yamaha General Manager of Global Marketing and Sales Department, Professional Solutions Division commented, “The unique technologies of the CS-500, comparable to the CS-800, offer seamless, uninterrupted collaboration through high-quality audio and video for both in-person and remote participants to deliver the best Microsoft Teams experience for meeting rooms, wherever you work.”
